Nokia Communicator Server for MacOs
To connect to an Apple Macintosh, you must have the Nokia Communicator
Server application running on the Macintosh and a cable connection
established between the communicator and the Macintosh.
The Nokia Communicator Server application is compatible with MacOS 7.5 or
newer versions, provided that they are equipped with a RS-422 serial port.
Macs equipped with a USB port can be connected to a communicator using a
USB to serial adapter.
To connect to an Apple Macintosh RS-422 serial port, you need to have an Apple
Mac modem cable (not provided by Nokia) connected to your Mac. To connect
the modem cable to the DLR-2 cable (included in the sales package), you need
to have an 9M25F adapter (not provided by Nokia), because the Mac modem
cable has 25 pins and the DLR-2 RS cable has only 9 pins. With this cable
combination you can use the Nokia Communicator Server software for MacOs.
The PC suite connectivity software does not support MacOS.
Tip: For information on how to install new
software on your communicator with the
Nokia Communicator Server, see ”Install/
Remove software” on page 134.
